Patent NZ-268542-A (NZ)
Title: Water gun with at least one pressurisable air/water storage tank and a spring release trigger mechanism including a plug valve
Inventor: D ANDRADE BRUCE M
IPC: F41B9/00
Filed: 1994-06-28
Abstract: The present invention involves a water gun having at least one pressurizable air/water storage tank, a pressurizing mechanism, a channel of release for shooting water and a release mechanism. The improvement lies in the particular release mechanism of the water gun. This release mechanism is for controlled flow with bursting release of water. It includes a plug valve which is located within a channel of release. The release mechanism has a first spring connected to the plug valve which biases the plug valve to its first, closed position. This first spring and the internal water pressure against the plug valve constitutes the "first force."  Linkage connects a trigger to the plug valve such that activation of the trigger provides a second force which moves the linkage so as to move the plug valve from the first, closed position to the second, opened position and release of the trigger permits the first force to bias the plug valve back to its first, closed position. There is also a delay spring located within the linkage itself. When the trigger is pulled, it pulls the delay spring in a direction opposite from an against the first force. This first force is the force of the first spring as well as the internal water pressure holding the valve closed. At some point, the delay spring overcomes the forces of the first force holding the valve closed. At this point, the valve snaps open and there is rapid decrease of water pressure causing a burst of water to exit the water gun. This creates a controllable burst and a realistic trigger release.

Title: A method of rolling superconducting conductor lengths and roller apparatus
Inventor: SKOV-HANSEN PEDER
IPC: B21B27/02
Filed: 1998-07-14
Abstract: A roller apparatus and a method of rolling in particular superconductors is disclosed, wherein a roller apparatus is used that comprises two roller bodies arranged opposite each other whereby the roller bodies form opposed roller surface planes; and wherein means are arranged for driving the two roller elements about their axes of symmetry in such a manner that the element to be rolled is pulled in between the roller surface planes by the friction generated between the element to be rolled and the roller surface planes. In accordance with the invention, the roller apparatus is so configured that the roller bodies comprise at least two annular or tubular roller bodies; and wherein the annular or tubular roller bodies are further provided with surfaces that form an annular track; and in that the roller apparatus has a pressure device which is arranged for abutment on the annular track in such a manner that the roller surface planes are pressed towards each other; and wherein the pressure device is configured and located in such a manner that the pressure device is in abutment on only a fraction of the annular track on the annular or tubular rollers. Hereby it is possible to roll with very large roller diameters without ensuing significant risk of the rollers being undesirably deformed during the roller process. In particular for the rolling of superconductors, experiments have shown that improved properties are obtained for the rolled superconductor.

Title: Sandwich cookie making machine
Inventor: VAN DER ENT JOHANNES G
IPC: A21C15/00
Filed: 1999-06-30
Abstract: A sandwich cookie making machine receives cookie halves from an oven. The cookie halves are then aligned by a servo driven aligner. The cookie halves are transferred to a first chain assembly that transports the cookie halves to a depositor where cream is deposited on every other cookie half. The cookie halves are then transferred to a second chain assembly that transports the cookie halves to a capper area. A series of tall and short lugs are fixed to the second chain assembly. The tall lugs push the cream deposited cookie halves and the short lugs push the non-deposited cookie halves. A capper wheel having a plurality of scoops spaced circumferentially about the capper wheel, lifts the non-deposited cookie halves from the chain assembly. The non-deposited cookie halves are rotated and inverted. The non-deposited cookie halves are supported above a deposited cookie half until one of the tall lugs pushes the non-deposited cookie half onto a deposited cookie half forming a cookie sandwich. The cookie sandwiches are transported to a stacker for sorting and packaging.
